Achatinellidae
Achatinellidae is a family of tropical air-breathing land snails, terrestrial pulmonate gastropod mollusks in the superfamily Pupilloidea. Taxonomy It was previously the only family in the superfamily Achatinelloidea (according to the taxonomy of the Gastropoda by Bouchet & Rocroi, 2005). It is now classified under the superfamily Pupilloidea. The family Achatinellidae represents a diverse adaptive radiation. All species of tree-snail in Hawaii are believed to have come from a single ancestral snail. How that ancestral snail made the trip across the ocean is unknown. A longstanding theory is that a bird carried a notably smaller ancestor across the ocean and dropped it on the islands, as bird mediated dispersal has been documented in other snail species. Alternative theories include that it floating across the ocean on a mat of debris, or that it island hopped across the Pacific in a combination of the theories. Subfamilies in the family Achatinellidae include: * Achatinellin ...

MolluscaBase eds. (2023). MolluscaBase. Vallonia pulchella (O. F. Müller, 1774). Accessed through: World Register of Marine Species at: https://marinespecies.org/aphia.php?p=taxdetails&id=875635 on 2023-01-21 Description For terms see gastropod shell The shell is circular in outline, with 3.2 - 3.3 whorls. The last whorl is wider immediately before the aperture, and is not much descending. Compared to ''Vallonia costata'', the aperture is not very oblique, and the lip is weaker than in that species. ''Vallonia pulchella'' also has slightly more elevated whorls than ''Vallonia costata''. Like other ''Vallonia'' species, the umbilicus is very wide. The shell is ivory-white with very fine and irregular streaks. The soft parts are milky white. The tentacles are short, and the post ...
